ABA 2024: Breeding Vision Winner - Shainy Majidi

Breeders Brew: The Dog Breeding Podcast · 2025-05-05

In this inspirational episode of Breeders Brew, Sara flies solo to celebrate the incredible achievements of one of the Annual Breeder Awards winners – the visionary French Bulldog breeder Shainy Majidi!

🌟 Shainy is a double finalist and the proud winner of the Breeding Vision Award. She is recognised for her unwavering ethics, preparation, and drive to raise the bar for French Bulldog breeding.

🎙️ Tune in as Sara and Shainy deep dive into:

✅ How Shainy’s passion for ethical breeding began after discovering her Frenchie’s unexpected athleticism and health, flipping the script on common stereotypes.
✅ The critical role of mentorship, how a trusted stud dog owner guided her first experience, and why it changed her entire mindset.
✅ What happens when a stud doesn’t live up to expectations, and the courage it takes to walk away, even when the clock is ticking.
✅ Practical prep before breeding: folic acid, exercise, ovulation testing, and more.
✅ The importance of BOAS testing and selecting stud dogs with breathing health at the forefront.
✅ Raising two litters, nine days apart – how she did it, what she learnt, and why she's probably still catching up on sleep!

Whether breeding your first litter or looking to refine your programme, this conversation is full of insight, inspiration, and real-world lessons you won’t find in a textbook.
